Fighter


I orginally gave this film one star on Netflix just by reading the plot. I changed my mind after seeing half the film on IFC or Sundance channel one weekend. It is like a Scandanvian, Bend it Like Beckham, film. Girl comes from strict family and has an unusal hobby for a girl. She is good at kickboxing - really good. She falls in love and he has to get use to her family's strict views on such things. She messes up her brother chance at a good marriage. She wants to participate in a tournament, but will her father disown her. It ends up the same way as Bend it Like Beckham, but it was grittier. I loved the filming of the fight scenes. All in all, I say: RENT IT.
